<div class='featuredimage'><img src='https://coinsnotebook.com/wp-content/uploads/2020-Fifty-Pence-Celebrating-British-Diversity.jpg' alt='2020 Fifty Pence Celebrating British Diversity' /></div><br>A new fifty pence coin minted by the Royal Mint seeks to embrace all elements of diversity in Britain.<br />
<br />
The Reverse, designed by Royal Mint graphic designer Dominique Evans, shows a series of interconnecting lines and triangles that form a network in a geodome creating the symbol of connections and strength together. The inscription is: DIVERSITY BUILT BRITAIN.<br />
<br />
Dominique Evans has already designed some well known coins, such as the Queen Elizabeth&apos;s Sapphire Coronation,  the 2017 life and work of Jane Austen coin, and the commemorative coin for Victory in Europe (VE) Day.<br />
<br />
The seven-sided 50 pence coin has a diameter of 27.30mm. It is minted in cupro-nickel as a BU finish, and also as Silver Proof, Silver Proof Piedfort, Gold Proof and Gold Proof Piedfort.<br />
<br />
The coins are available from the <a href="https://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=GqmaHevdQfI&amp;offerid=572377.24418&amp;type=3&amp;subid=0" target="new" rel="noopener noreferrer">Royal Mint Shop</a><img src="https://ad.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/show?id=GqmaHevdQfI&amp;bids=572377.24418&amp;type=3&amp;subid=0" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" /><br>.<br />
